    Study Notes

    Data Manipulation with Pandas

    • To select the top 2 records from a DataFrame, use the head() function.
    • To select records where the 'age' is greater than 18 in a DataFrame, use the conditional selection method df[df['age'] &gt; 18].
    • To add a new column in a DataFrame that sums values across specific columns, use the assign() function.
    • To sort records in a DataFrame based on a specific column, use the sort_values() method.

    Reading CSV Files with Pandas

    • To read a CSV file into a DataFrame using pandas, use the read_csv() function.

    SQL Queries

    • To display student details who got the highest total marks, use the SQL query SELECT * FROM Student ORDER BY total_marks DESC LIMIT 1.
    • The SELECT statement in SQL is used to retrieve data from a database table.

    Database Concepts

    • In the 'Student' table, the primary key 'sno' represents a unique identifier for each student.
    • The 'gross_salary' column in the 'Employee' table represents the total salary of an employee.

    Data Sorting and Listing

    • When sorting a dataframe based on 'gross salary', the order of records will be arranged in ascending or descending order based on the salary values.
    • When listing out the top three records from a dataframe, the program will display the first three records in the sorted order.
